    Skijoring in the Twin Cities always an adventure
    Most people who missed the first part of the Super Bowl didn't miss it because they were driving back from the Cities in a small car with two big dogs and another human. I didn't mind having a dog head on each shoulder, though. All four of us had had an exciting and exhausting...
